Donor Impact Report 2021

Jacqui MacDonald-Davis , parent of James Davis OA (2003-14) has made the generous decision to remember the College in her will. Jacqui remembers how much of an impact Dulwich made on her son James, enabling him to pursue his many passions including being a member of the school orchestra and choir, his love of rugby, and other sports, as well as being one of the first group of boys moving from the Junior school to the Lower school as an academic scholar. “There was never any question that I would remember Dulwich in my will. Dulwich College played such an important part of my and James’ life for so many years (from DUCKS to Year 13), and I’m delighted to be able to give back to the College in this way. As a parent and as an educator, it's about ensuring that future boys can benefit from a Dulwich education. I would recommend to anyone that they consider remembering the College in their wills.” “Though my family comes first, I know that even just a small percentage left to the College will make a tremendous difference. I’m proud that my gift will have a longstanding future by benefiting future Dulwich boys irrespective of their financial background.”

A gift in your will to Dulwich College is a fantastic opportunity to support the education of future generations of Alleynians, making an excellent holistic Dulwich education accessible to more and more talented boys from diverse backgrounds. We are so grateful to our growing numbers of supporters who choose to give back to us in this way, and if you have remembered the College in your will, we hope that you will tell us so that we can properly thank you for your generous gift. Over the past ten years, more the 22% of our Bursary Appeal has come from gifts in wills. These gifts in wills have made a significant impact on our ability to provide deserving pupils with the opportunity to access a Dulwich education. With your support, we can do so much more. As part of the Canon Carver Society, you will be invited to private events at the College and get to meet with your fellow supporters each year. If you would like to know more, please contact:

Like Jacqui, anyone who remembers the College in their wills will be invited to join our Canon Carver Society. Established in 2004, it was named in honour of Canon Alfred James Carver, Master of Dulwich College (1858-83), who set the College on a new course following the Dulwich College Act of 1857. The changes he implemented transformed the College and enabled Dulwich to gain its reputation as one of the country’s leading schools.

Thank you
